An apparatus comprises an image processing circuit capable of applying development processing to RAW data obtained by a sensor. The apparatus has a non-development mode and a development mode as operation modes, the non-development mode being a mode in which the apparatus records the RAW data into a storage device without applying the development processing to the RAW data, and the development mode being a mode in which the apparatus applies the development processing to a plurality of the RAW data recorded into the storage device during when the apparatus operated in the non-development mode. The apparatus operates in the non-development mode or the development mode in accordance with a setting.
